Seven Things You Didn't Know about Tibet
University of Chicago Press, USA
Supplied note:
"For several centuries Westerners have gotten Tibet
and Tibetan Buddhism wrong. Fueled part by fantasy
and part by misinterpretation, the myths have
endured. The University of Chicago Press website
now hosts a web feature 'Seven Things You Didn't
Know about Tibet' by Donald S. Lopez Jr.,
author of _Prisoners of Shangri-La: Tibetan
Buddhism and the West_. The feature discusses
seven common misconceptions of Tibet and Tibet
Buddhism."
